Medan-Binjai pipeline

JAKARTA (JP): The state-owned Perusahaan Gas Negara (PGN) will build a gas pipeline linking Medan, the capital of North Sumatra and Binjai, a nearby town, the company said.

A company executive said in Medan over the weekend that PGN was currently only able to serve Medan.

PGN's current customers in Medan are mostly manufacturing companies. Only few households use the gas fuel due to the lack of pipeline networks. (icn)
